Dear Deron,

Earlier this week, upgraded my A4000 Toaster/Flyer system from OS3.1 to
OS3.5 because my system hard drive dumped and had to replace it with a
larger drive than OS3.1 supports.

I downloaded some e-mail attached jpeg files on my PC, transferred them
to PC floppies and copied them into my Graphics drawer in PageStream on
my Amiga. These were scans of manual pages that I planned on bringing
into PS, placing them on 8.5x11 pages and printing on the Laser Printer
on the Amiga.

PROBLEM: After checking the option of leaving the file external and
pressing the <Enter> button, I get a box with the message - "Please
insert volume JPEGTMP in any drive" - I have to "warm boot" to get back
to the desktop. (I do not have this problem in my PC version of PS -
these same files "place" as expected and print to its ink jet, OK).

I've never encountered this before when "Placing Graphics" on an Amiga -
did I lose something when I copied my backup of the partition PS was in,
onto my new drive, or is something else going on here?

Thanks for your help and your continued support for the best desktop
publishing program available on any platform!

Ralph

Add the following lines to your user-startup file.

;BEGIN JPEG DataType
assign >NIL: JPEGTMP: "RAM:"
;END JPEG DataType

It's not PageStreams "fault" it is due to the jpg datatype. Simply add this
assign in your S:User-Startup it should solve the problem:

;BEGIN JPEG DataType
assign >NIL: JPEGTMP: "RAM:T"
;END JPEG DataType

or

;BEGIN JPEG DataType
Assign JPEGTMP: <harddrive path><temporary drawer of your choice>
;END JPEG DataType

if you haven't much ram: and big jpeg's to load.
